### 6.3.1 64-bit offsets and lengths

Some NFS version 3 protocol servers can only support requests where the file offset or length fits in 32 or fewer bits. For these servers, the lock manager will have the same restriction. If such a lock manager receives a request that it cannot handle (because the offset or length uses more than 32 bits), it should return the error, NLM4_FBIG.
